Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
The Sony MZ-G750 Recordable MiniDisc Walkman has all you need for high-class portable sound--a recordable MiniDisc complete with radio in one neat package. Sony has decided to add a radio into its range of portable MiniDisc players, effectively giving you two portables in one. It has managed to keep the size down too; MZ-G750 is little bigger than other players in the range. It's a handsome beast and despite being relatively light it's well constructed and sturdy. Power is supplied by a single AA battery, the compartment for which adds a bulge to the back of the otherwise beautifully compact body.

The list of features is impressive. It'll handle Sony's LP2 and LP4 recording modes, which squeeze even more music onto a single disc. You do lose quality though, and the highest level is best left to spoken word recordings. Putting so many functions on a tiny device does mean it can get fiddly to control and some functions require delving through a good few menus. There's a remote control unit halfway along the cable that is a trifle bulky, but manages to pack an amazing number of functions.

The sound quality is excellent, one of Sony's strengths. It provides a crisp and detailed sound right across the range without being overly sharp or bright. Radio reception is remarkably good too. The headphone wire doubles as the FM antenna and there are 40 pre-sets to store your radio stations. Amazingly the radio takes more power than the MiniDisc. Battery life is generally very good though. It comes complete with an external adapter for when you are at home, useful since recording is the one job that will eat batteries pretty quickly. You can record from either a digital or analogue source, although you'll need to buy an extra cable for analogue recordings. One small disappointment is that you cannot record from the radio; it is switched off when you operate the device in MiniDisc mode. The earphones are Sony's little in-ear affairs, decent enough but a player of this quality could usefully be used to drive something a little meatier. The MZ-G750 is a superb piece of hardware, it has all the features and capabilities of Sony's other highly desirable MiniDisc players, but with a radio on top. --Miles Berkeley

5.0 out of 5 stars Sony have done it again, 19 Dec 2002
What a mini disc player sony have come up with. Its light, versatile and has loadsa battery life. There is a snag though, with the radio i found that it is bulky and quite haevy for a remote, the aerial for the radio is actually in the headphone wire so if it is not straight you tend to get a pretty poor signal. Although i did not buy the md disc player for the radio it was just an extra for me. But if you are overlooking the rest of sony's great md models, because lets face it the only md players which are any good are sony, then do not go for this model because of its radio. Having siad that if the headphone wire is positioned correctly you can get decent enough signal to get the usual - radio 1 capital. lp2 and lp4 are as standard on this model and they are very useful. This is an older model though, i would recommend one of sonys latest with pc link because you can make complitations albums using pc interface.
But if you are just looking for a portable md player which you want for recording cd albums off your hifi then this is the one for you. NB make sure you have checked that your hifi has an optical out link - most of the newer hifis do - probably from 2000 onwards, if not it can be quite taxing to record mds, with an optical cable its all digitally done so you can put your feet up and relax.

4.0 out of 5 stars Right choice, 21 Dec 2001
By A Customer
I bought this because I wanted the radio as well as the MD player. However, I find the radio tuning to be pretty poor and the reception not too hot either. Still, the MD music quality is excellent. I use the LP2 mode which gets about 2.5 hours of music on an MD. I can't tell any difference between LP2 and normal modes.
The real trouble I've had though is with recording. Not the MDs fault though. I'm using a SoundBlaster card on my PC and its Digital Out, isn't compatible with the Sony's Digital in (even with a lead that fits both correctly. Something about TOSLINK Vs SPID standards?)..... VHS Vs Betamax again? Anyway, I ended up having to record music using analogue, even though I have digital connections for both pieces of kit. Not a problem I suppose if you have the right sort of 'out' on a music system.

Anyway, Sony MD, yeah... brilliant.

Any help on the problem I mentioned would be gratefully received by the way.
